Update 28/03/16
Today I didn’t get time to revise because I was out most of the time but I tried to crack on with revision.
Past Paper: English Language

1. November2012 – 30/40 – Grade A
2. November2013 – 30/40 – Grade A
3. November2014 – 30/40 – Grade A
4. Summer2015 – 32/40 – Grade A

Today, I was revising English Language and I don’t really know how to revise so I only did past papers. If you guys have any suggestions or advice please tell me,especially on how to improve my writing skills e.g. new vocab

You'd better get to it then - only kidding, you've got plenty of time and make sure you enjoy your hols :smile:

At the moment I'm trying to memorise my German and do more history because I have tests in both tomorrow :biggrin:

haha thanks - any advice? :smile:

That is weird!! I've done some more of them again today because of the test I have tomorrow - how is revision going for you overall? :smile:

Thank you! I LOVE science. Which exam board do you do and what do you think you struggle with the most? I'll try to help you where I can :smile:

My revision isn't going very well since I had a breakdown a few days ago. My predictions were very high though so I hope I'll be fine for the exams.

How about you?

I find those even more boring.
It's just the content - I find it a bit hard.
Do you have any notes or something that you can share :O

)

I will try to get them to you as soon as possible :smile:

Aw I'm sorry to hear that - are you ok now though?

If there is anything I can do to help you reach your predictions just let me know.

And for me, my eczema is playing up so I spend more time scratching than doing anything else :smile:

Let's help each other along - I wish you the best with everything :smile:

Well I had a talk with a professional and now I'm on my way to get better. It was the pressure and feelings I bottled inside me for months which exploded instantly causing a lot of mess in my room :P

Sorry to hear that! I hope it'll get better soon :smile:

If you want feel free to PM me and we can talk more ^^ I can always help too, though I do have a different exam board (CIE).

Ok. So, my teacher just emailed me today saying he's lost the recording of my last French speaking and I can't redo my old one so I now need to memorise a new one. Great. Therefore, I've only gone over physics notes and memorised my French.

MyMaths and JustMaths are quite good also. For me I would just recommend past papers from the start they are the best way to spot weaknesses.

Same here with eczema, a doctor told me it can play up when the season changes? that's when I'm bad, rest of the time I'm fine

Happy Birthday! 🎉

Heading to the library today at opening time as I focus much better there. Going to walk there with my friend wo's going to a revision session at her school. :smile:

Didn't get much done yesterday as had family over for Easter but learnt first German paragraph. Today I plan to quickly go over German paragraph and check I know it, learn first French paragraph, B3, C3, P3 and a bit of maths. If I have time I'll try to do an English past question as that was set as homework.
